1. A gene gun is used for delivery of exogenous DNA to cells. 2. Different disc strengths can be available for some gene gun models. 3. Nabel said he is using the gene gun in several experiments. 4. Step 1 The gene gun apparatus is ready to fire. 5. Other methods include a " gene gun " or " biolistic particle delivery system ". 6. Some models of gene gun also use a rupture disc, but not as a safety device. 7. The gene gun has become a common tool for labeling subsets of cells in cultured tissue. 8. Gene guns can be used effectively on most cells but are mainly used on plant cells.9. Gene gun bombardment has also been used to transform " Caenorhabditis elegans ", as an alternative to microinjection.10. Another approach is called " microprojectile bombardment " or " biolistics, " which employs a gas-powered " gene gun ."
